Little Girl with Red Pail

8x5.5 watercolor over ink sketch, ultrafine tip black Sharpie and Strathmore Visual Journal, of a young girl headed to the beach.  I am trying out the new journal and really do like its paper for watermedia, which is 140 lb cold pressed and acid free.  It will take watercolor, pen and ink, collage and marker.
